MARIYA IS A REAL DEAL!
There’s an art to making subjects feel comfortable and capturing those genuine,
candid moments. There's no AWKWARDNESS, just YOU being YOU.
Every shot was a perfect blend of emotions, elegance, and spontaneity.
I couldn't recommend her enough!

... Her work is truly REMARKABLE and we are soooo happy with our photos. They were truly behind the scenes and captured some of the most amazing moments from our wedding from various perspectives. She made comments of how to adjust and look which really helped get some stunning photos that were still ABOUT the MOMENT ITSELF and less about staging...
